Say if Gary Mason faced Frank Bruno instead of Lennox in 1991.
Here we have two Borderline top 10 heavyweights.

Who wins?

I used to watch them both spar back in 86/87/88 back in the good old Royal Oak days.....

Thanks for that amazing insight Eric... now try actually answering the question

That is a real hard fight to call.
I would have to say Mason as he had a better chin and punched just as hard as Bruno.
I to remember seeing them sparring back in the day and can remember them both saying they would not ever fight one another. (Would Upset Terry To much).

the fans DD

Think Bruno's underestimated jab would have given Mason fits. I'd say Bruno would have stood a better chance against Lewis in 1991 then when they fought in 1993 and we all know what Lewis did to Mason.

I think Bruno would do a similar job on Mason as what Lewis did

Come on Eric don't leave us hanging!?!

I always, always fancied Mason over Bruno...but I think Frank excelled himself against Lewis. Probably his best performance, including against McCall. 50/50 scrap.

bruno would have won with ease as he was much stronger and a more accurate puncher with that long jab but he always struggled to do championship distants of twelve rounds

Mason would punch Frank to a standstill if he used bodyshots. Assuming Bruno never closes Mason's eye the same way Lewis did.

well...lewis never managed it with mason, are you saying bruno is more accurate than lewis etc etc etc !! .... i think the history books would tell you differently...
